The plant that spends most of its time in the sporophyte stage is a fern. Ferns have a dominant sporophyte generation, while the gametophyte stage is usually small and short-lived. In contrast, mosses have a dominant gametophyte generation. Conifers and flowering plants also spend a significant time in the sporophyte stage, but ferns are well-known for their sporophyte dominance among non-seed plants.
